Historically, centrally computed algorithms have been the primary means of power system
optimization and control. With increasing penetrations of distributed energy resources …

Synchronization of an ensemble of oscillators is an emergent phenomenon present in
several complex systems, ranging from social and physical to biological and technological …

In recent researches on inverter-based distributed generators, disadvantages of traditional
grid-connected current control, such as no grid-forming ability and lack of inertia, have been …

The ongoing evolution of the power system towards a “SmartGrid” implies a dominant role of
power electronic converters, but poses strict requirements on their control strategies to …

Over the last decade, frequency-droop-based control schemes have become the preferred
solution in microgrids dominated by power electronic converters. More recently, the concept …

The concept of Virtual Synchronous Machines (VSM) is emerging as an alternative
approach for control of power electronic converters operating in the power system. One main …

This paper presents a comparison of the small-signal stability properties for virtual
synchronous machines (VSMs) with dynamic and quasi-stationary representation of the …

It is now more than a decade since distributed generation (DG) began to excite major
interest amongst electric power system planners and operators, energy policy makers and …
